Question

you are buying one flower for each member of the swim team to wear at an awards tonight there are 19 members on the team you have decided to buy pink roses and yellow roses the pink roses cost $3 and the yellow roses cost $2 you will spend $50 Let x represent pink roses and y represent yellow roses . If there's a solution graph them

Answer 1

Let:

x = Number of pink roses

y = Number of yellow roses

there are 19 members on the team, so:

`x+y\le19`

the pink roses cost $3 and the yellow roses cost $2 you will spend $50, so:

`3x+2y\le50`

so:

`\begin{gathered} y\le19-x \\ y\le(1)/(2)(50-3x) \end{gathered}`
